Klipsch Heritage Klipschorn AK7

The Klipschorn®, the first Klipsch speaker ever produced, is bolder and more beautiful than ever. The new Klipschorn AK7 Premium Loudspeaker features book-matched veneers in Black Ash, American Walnut, and new American Auburn colorways, as well as a new extended phase plug, cinema-grade 3" compression driver, patented Tractrix mid-range horn with Mumps technology, and an optional active external DSP designed to bring out the best in our legacy loudspeaker.

Klipschorn Hero Image speaker pair in cool listening room in front of leather seating 2000x1525

The AK7 is available with an optional Heritage Active Crossover tuned specifically for Klipschorn speakers. Trickle-down technology from our heralded Klipsch Jubilee floorstanding speakers, the Heritage Active DSP aligns time and phase while boosting frequencies and balancing EQ for a flat, color-free response.

Active & passive setups

To accommodate the Heritage Active Crossover and give listeners more options, we’ve modified the I/O panel. It now includes passive and active inputs and a passive output, so customizing your setup is easy. We’ve also moved the panel to the speaker’s back for a cleaner look from almost any angle.

THREE-WAY, HORN-LOADED EFFICIENCY

The Klipschorn’s three-way, horn-loaded system makes it leagues more efficient than the average loudspeaker. For the AK7, we couple each driver to a precisely measured horn and optimize it for one of three pass-bands. This design generates greater acoustic power with less wattage, producing crystal clear sound with minimal distortion across the frequency spectrum.

EXTENDED PHASE PLUG FOR HEAVENLY HIGHS

We’ve paired our K-771 compression driver with a new, patented, extended phase plug to prevent cancellations and equalize wavelengths for cleaner dispersion. That means you get more coverage and clarity than ever before.

3" COMPRESSION DRIVER PUMPS UP THE POWER

Our new, cinema grade, mid-range K1133 compression driver adds a full inch to the drivers on previous AK6 models. Hand-built in Hope, Arkansas, the larger compression area increases sound pressure to the horn’s throat for more voluptuous volume.

SPREAD THE SOUNDSTAGE WITH TRACTRIX AND MUMPS

The AK7 gets the Tractrix® treatment. The new K-406M patented Tractrix mid-range horn features a shorter, 2" throat for unparalleled presence and precision. Mumps technology improves coverage, adding small contours to help maintain frequency response to the horn’s edge.

BRING OUT THE BASS

The Klipschorn’s fully enclosed low-frequency horn, paired with the powerful K-33-E 15" woofer, delivers deep, rich bass with remarkable clarity and impact. Its innovative folded horn design increases bass extension and efficiency.
